Hi, I write this on behalf of my wife who along with BRP is also legally blind. She says the BRP is worse than losing her sight. She had tried Gabapentin but could not take it. I think she said it made her feel -"dopey" if that's the right word. Being blind she needs the use of all her senses n order to function. She was also told that she should not try the chiropractic route as sometimes they are too rough and could cause more damage. Through trial and error she found her own solution to help her. Primarily it is Capzacin. .But using just the Capzacin (I know I am spelling it wrong) causes a real burning sensation. So she uses a numbing cream by Ebanel with 5pct Lidocaine along with the Capzacin..
